Recenzii

An amazing book, magnificently covering the grand sweep of scientific endeavor. With each discovery, our vision shifts; the world seems renewed.

This excellent celebration of the evolution of science over the centuries should be of broad interest to scientists and non-scientists alike--it will also be a wonderful stimulus to young people thinking about a career in science. --David J. Weatherall
